Messy Drivers
I was just browsing the Web when I found this article about a car filled with "Mountains of Trash"

Then I remembered I took this pic in Lewiston about 2 months ago when I parked next to this Mini Van in the plaza next to the Orange Cat Coffee Co.

How can people drive in such filth and how in the F do they let their vehicles get to that point? Yes, I can get sloppy at home but I always keep my car's contents to a minimum. What if something broke down in any of these cars and a mechanic needed to get in and fix something?

It's just absolutely distusting.

omg! remember me bitching about my co-worker being a filthy pig? THIS is exactly what her car looks like!!! AND her work space!

Ive seen this car! A month ago, atleast. I had a bunch of errands in Lewiston, so I parked in the general area and then walked to all of them. As I walked down Center towards Orange Cat, I saw it in probably the same place as you did; in the plaza by the side walk. I wondered how.. anyone.. could drive like that. I vowed on the spot to never let mine get that bad, not that it would- but its been clean ever since.

I have never seen a car filled with that much junk. It makes me wonder if it smells.

Hey my car's not that bad. ;) Admittedly, it's getting there, but there's still hope!

as they make their album, each song's video will be portrayed as a short film. the first release being 'the shining'.

I have seen that arrow hall show listed also as missaguga depends on what concert listing you go by.

I have never seen that movie. But I love the video and the song. If I knew what the song was about it might tie in to the video or the movie. But nothing wrong with a video in a palace with sord fighting filmed as if it is an epic martial arts movie. On a side note if you like them I forget the dates but they are playing 3 days in a row in Ontario. Granted I don't know ontario well enough to know where the towns are but one of them is Missagua.

I can breath now
Category: school
I can finally take a breather. I just handed in Exam #1 of this stats class. Only 1 more week and an exam and hopefully I wont' have to deal with another Hyposthesis Test or an ANOVA for a while.

Other than that I'm just been pretty boring. Working early trying to stay healthy and sane the usual.

Then again there's always the Feb 14 conundrum....

(e:vincent), You've done enough t-scores, now it's time to score some vodka and teas!

(e:ingrid), I think that the feb 14th conundrum is the usual "spending Valentines alone" affliction that a statistically significant number of (e:peeps) seem to suffer from. But if (e:vincent) is referring to something else, your guess is as good as mine.

What's the Feb 14th conundrum?

Life @ the Casino
Category: work
I've noticed that pretty much every day that I"m here it is 90% of the same group of people here everyday. Given I work in the Poker Room and it is a bit differentl than the regular casino floor. Where people just dump their money. Poker is more of a grind.

There are these guys playing the "Big Game" that were here last evening are are still here playing the same game. Given these guys have $8,000-$12,000 in front of them at the moment but still there is more to life than a big poker game.

I went over to Fallsview last night with my Dad to use up all of this remaining comp dollars for the month playing slots. I ended up just blowing $60 or the equilevant of the meal myself. I just find that place too sterile "vegas stripish" If I want to go to Mandalay Bay I'll go to Vegas and hit the real thing.

The highlight on the night was talking to M* a cocktail waitress over there that used to come into our poker room. From what she told me she is staying away until the next Ladies Only tournament in 2 weeks. I'm just blown away to hear that a cocktail waitress has taken too much of a hit from a casino that she has to totally bar herself from coming. We know better from watching degenerates "blow their brains out" on a daily basis to get sucked into it.

Then what do I know, I was just stoked to be talking to someone like her and have her actually wanting to converse back. Then reality hit as she was being pulled 3 or 4 different directions of people needing drinks.

It's strange to actually be part of this casino "scene" and have that casual commardary going on with the people across the ditch. They come to our place and we go over to theirs since we can't gamble at the place that we get our W-2's from.

Cold Sinus
Category: health
I think that this sinus cold is really putting me to the test. It has been since Monday and only now it is starting to subside. Feeilng stupid due your head being congested is just a helpess sensation.

In the mean time I have to grab some lunch and head back for the second half of my Saturday class.

Then I'm off to Canada tonight for dinner @ my Uncle's place.

Other than that nothing too exciting. It's just that the women in my life right now have are not having the best luck at things lately...
